Lipoic acid (in the preferred 'r' isomer form used in Mito Caps) is often called the "universal antioxidant" because, unlike other antioxidants, it scavenges both water and fat-soluble free radicals.

What have you done for your mitochondria lately? The unique Mito Caps formula, which incorporates the results of exciting discoveries in cellular physiology, helps mitochondria (the thousands of energy-producing "furnaces" in your cells) work more efficiently and stay healthier. To quote one nutritional expert, "The longer you can stimulate the lifespan or health of the mitochondria, the longer you will live and the better you will perform in endurance events. The athlete who has the most healthy/efficient mitochondria is the athlete who performs at their best." The take-home message is that if you take care of your mitochondria they'll take care of you in so many ways. In addition to these extraordinary benefits and thanks to several of the other nutrients in the formula, improved brain health and function are additional benefits you may expect from Mito Caps.
